Nine races ended with a margin of fewer than 500 votes separating the leading candidates from the second -place finisher.

An automatic recount is possible only when the voter margin is less than one-thousandth of the total valid votes cast in the polls in the riding.

Kitchener Centre was the only other riding outside British Columbia to elect a Green Party candidate when incumbent Mike Morrice was elected in 2021 .

Conservative Kelly DeRidder defeated Morrice, narrowly winning 34.2% of the votes.

The riding isn’t eligible for an automatic judicial recount.
